Greetings!
I bought a new laptop that came with Win7 Home Premium. My destkop box is
Vista Home Premium. I decided to "connect" them...
The Win7 box "sees" the Vista shares (and the printer) just fine.
The Vista box apparently sees the Win7 box as some sort of media. When I
try to open the Win7 share from Vista, it insists on opening in Media
Player. ("Open with..." is not an option. It also has some strange
little icon which, to my surgically altered eyes, looks like a little
strip of movie film. The local Vista file and folder icons in the network
view show as file and folder icons and not "media" icons.)
As far as grabbing bookmarks, etc, from the Vista machine, I can do that
from the Win7 end. Any ideas as to why things are screwy at the Vista
end? (That it is Vista Home Premium is a possible explanation.)
Thanks!
